SUPER RUDE,RUDE, RUDE SUPPORT - Company must be run out of a basement with a one person staff! Documentation is written on the back of a cocktail napkin (and most of it is written in Kleon)!

Summary

This product is 'good' but has some major bugs in it - for instance, you can use a 'mask' but cannot format the output, so a mask of 999.999.9999 might show up on the form with a length of 35 and there is no way to fix it! Also, if you create a decimal (4,2) you MUST enter anything less than 100 precede by a '0' - this really is poor quality control as I see it.I have too much time invested in this product to change now, but for the next version a complete rewrite is justified - and will undertaken!I strongly suggest you give this company any further business and hopefully it will vanish off the map as I can't believe how rude they (really I thinks it is a 'mom and pop' company) support is.

The review I posted above was incorrect in a number of ways, first, the review was NOT for SQL Maestro for MySQL. Second, it was for PHP Generator for MySQL.

I have been out of the development environment for a while and PHP was totally new to me as well as MySQL (as an Oracle DBA/Designer I have very little contact with any other products other than Oracle DB's and Oracle Forms). The 'skill set transfer' was not as easy as I thought!

I now have had more time to work with PHP Generator for MySQL and find it fits my need pretty well. I do have to say the documentation is aimed at a more experienced PHP person and a solid understand of MySQL would go a long way.

The support has improved and they do respond within a reasonable amount of time.

Again, the above review was written in hast and out of frustration (on my part).
